The bus ride is very very long, but you are rewarded by the beauty of the pyramids. Only advice , specify well which museum you want to see because I ended up at the old one I had already visited in the past .Italian guide very clear and helpful as well as the companion

RECOMMENDED!!!
It was a 100% great experience as a tour organization and service.
Ahmed our guide in Italian was kind and cultured.
Leave him a tip because he deserves it.
If you travel by bus I recommend you bring a winter jacket because at night it is cold.
For everything else Happy Holidays!!!

Nice journey, nice guides
It was a nice journey from Sharm to Cairo. Guides were very nice. The only thing that I suggest for a better trip is the bus. It can be more comfortable, maybe they can provide disposable pillows. Because it takes 7-8 hours. This trip is definitely a price & performance event.

Excellent trip
The Cairo trip from Sharm was an incredible experience. The coach ride was long, no food included on the ride so I'd advise to take snacks, lunch is included and was lovely. The tour guide spoke numerous languages which was great. The day was long and jam packed with things to do. We visited the antiquities museum which was great to learn about Egypt's history. We learnt how to make papyrus and had an amazing lunch at a local restaurant. The pyramids and great sphinx was a magical experience. Anyone travelling to Egypt this tour is a must. I would say if I was to go again we would fly as my children struggled with her long coach and tiredness. Thanks for a fantastic trip 👍

BAD EXPERIENCE. (ramses group)
We already got off on the wrong foot: they picked us up and it took us three hours just to recover all the people from the hotels, with unnecessary and meaningless stops.
The journey was exhausting: Nine and a half hours just for the outward journey. The guide said that the stops would last 20 minutes, but in reality they regularly turned into one-hour stops, without any explanation.
The buffet restaurant where they took us was terrible and inedible, one of the worst ever seen.
To top it all off, on the way back another “20-minute” stop lasted an entire hour just because the companion had to have dinner and smoke his cigarette, wasting more unnecessary time on everyone.
The only positive side was Ahmed, our guide: clear explanations in Italian, very kind person, nice and always available. Without him the experience would have been even worse.
Bad organization, out of control times and day ruined by fatigue. Excursion absolutely to be avoided.

A great day although a little tiring, but well worth doing.
Firstly I would like to thank Ammed and the team from Magic tours for sorting out our passport stamp.
The day commenced with a 1130 pm pick up from our hotel. We arrived in Cairo 7 hours later.
The first visit was to the Cairo museum, where we had an English speaking guide for the tour.
After that you had the opportunity to take a boat trip on the Nile.
After the trip we all regrouped and went for lunch. Very nice lunch of local cuisine.
After lunch we went to a perfume shop, where we smelt different perfumes and aftershaves.
Now it was time to go to Giza to see the pyramids and Sphinx. In my opinion I would have preferred longer here than visiting perfume shop.
Our final stop for the day was to a papyrus factory.
A great day out.
Warning!!!!!!
The visit for two cost £65. Your hotel agent will offer you this trip also but the cost offered to us was £145 for two. The usual sales jargon, not covered by insurance’s, you will be ripped off etc etc.
Please let me assure you, Magic Tours did not rip us off at all during the day.
If you book through trip advisor you will not be disappointed.
Things to ensure you have in place before you depart Sharm,
1. A visa to travel to Cairo.
2. A stamp from the airport to exit you from sharm.
If you do not have these you cannot travel, if not Ammed and his team can sort these for you but you will need to travel the next day if you turn up without them.
Enjoy your trip.

Sharm El Sheikh to Cairo tour
Me and my wife enjoyed it! It was worth travelling from Sharm El sheikh to Cairo for 6-7 hrs. It was once in a life time experience
The price was excellent as most of it was included already from picking up and dropping to your hotel, the bus travelling to and back, admission fees at museum of eqypt and pyramid of Giza and great sphinx.
The staffs (Eyab) were very helpful from sorting out document needed. We had a smooth journey going and back thanks to our drivers. Tour guides were fun as well especially our at the museum( forgot his name)
Overall its a 5* for me and my wife
